- Legendary comedian Art Carney, best known for his portrayal of Brooklyn sewer worker Ed Norton on The Honeymooners with Jackie Gleason, is the mystery guest here on the equally legendary CBS Sunday night guessing game show, What's My Line, which by the time of Carney's appearance here, WML had been on the air for sixteen years, running one more year before finally airing it's last program in 1967. Carney has a field day here teasing the panel...
What a shame we don't have shows like WHAT'S MY LINE in this day and age! Game shows now are mostly dreck (except for Jeopardy)..all pumped full of glitz, noise and whatnot. What's My Line had class - every week..and the regulars were erudite, funny, classy folks. Thanks for sharing this wonderful look back at the talented - and missed - ART CARNEY. He could say more with his eyes than any other comic with a page of dialogue!
Yeah, what a shame that the world moves on from what it used to be. There was a time not too long before this show aired when there were none at all. I wish we could go back to the days of sitting around the wireless
I fully agree. It's a shame we don't have talent of the caliber of Mr. Carney as well.
Because the young people of today are stupid and uncaring and don't want to know about anything from the great past, because they couldn't care less!!!!!
We do. You're just nostalgic
Thanx for posting. I think Carney holds the record for most WML mystery guest appearances, and he was FUNNY in them all, but this 1966 appearance has to be his most funny.
That disguised ( 1:10 )voice and then that impersonation of FDR ( 8:48 ) make this a great episode.
Carney's was a talent worth its weight in platnum. He could get huge laughs with the most subtle effects -- look at his reaction to Daly's legendary long-winded, over-literal clarifications ( 3:18 ) (5:50 ).
He and Milton Berle jointly hold the record at seven appearances each.
Hope that you can still read an old reply. I found Carney an insufferable bore who thought much too highly of himself thanks to people such as yourself who fed his sense of grandeur
Amen. thank heaven Gleason preserved his shows, so there is a record of both of them.
The FDR impersonation was spot-on. I want to hear him do more.... ;p
Before he was drafted in WWII, he played FDR and Churchill on a CBS radio program, "Report to the Nation". His impressions of them were absolutely incredible!
I Love Art Carney. 👍
What's also particularly interesting is how What's My Line was still as sharp as ever, even after fifteen years on the air...TV hasn't seen such a classy production (never mind it was simply a game show) in quite some time...thanks all for all the informative comments here as well!
Va va va voom, Art Carney will never be topped
Loved Arlene's response when Art repeated "Am I a motion picture star?" with that shaky "Yeah?"
This is WML at its zany best!
Excellent! Thanks for sharing!
Vtte4, Art's response to "Do you sing?" was, "If I'm asked."
Very talented man.
you can say that again one of a kind
Bennett Cerf guessed Art back in the 50s too!
The Best. He was so talented. RIP AC
He was great in the movie The Late Show with Lily Tomlinson - hard to get hold of a copy but I have it on VHS tape.
No, it was because by this time in the show, there were several rotating sponsors (unlike the early days when there was one main sponsor), therefore they did away with the sponsor on the desk.
Towards the later years, they didn't put up the sponsors' logo up because they had several sponsors that alternated each week. By this time, the days of one sponsor doing the show had waned.
"Perhaps. You'd like to hear tippy tippy tin?"
Never the same without Dorothy Kilgallen
sadly she died about 6 months before this episode. the circumstances of her death are quite controversial.
What was Carney's initial response to Allen's question, "Do you sing?" I couldn't quite catch it.
"When asked" is what he said.
Bennett guessed Art every time.
It ran for 17 years before airing it is last program?
I've noticed the sponsor's name wasn't there. I don't know if that was a decision by the networks of an FCC ruling to do away with that. Today, if watch a sporting event you'll see the sponsor's name on the front, or you'll see ads creeping.
who else was like "COME ON" when he signed in?
What happebed to Dorothy Kilgallen?
she killed herself ...
@@anneroy4560 I'm surprised that no one has yet responded to Anne Roy's assertion. Start by checking th-cam.com/video/52UgjRZyAI0/w-d-xo.html
Is John Daly still alive?
No absolutely Not !!!!!
:)
Marvelous!..that line "it's not Juan Peron"...priceless
